Hi, my name is Nathaniel Perkins. I
am a freshman here at SLU. When not at school, I reside in Concord, MA, also
known as the "land of poor roller skiing". However, I am lucky enough to do most
of my summer training in Dartmouth, MA.
I spent my high school years at Proctor
Academy in Andover, NH. Proctor was lucky enough to not only boast great
coaches, (yes, I am talking to you Sean Woods) but also about an exceptional ski area
with FIS homologation and snow making right on campus. My time so far at SLU has been awesome; the
team works really hard. OD days have been the best, unless it involves
running in which case no, thank you. My favorite color is blue and my favorite
T.V. channel is for sure the Oprah Winfrey Network, because, why not? I enjoy
country music a lot, and I dabble with basically everything else. I drive a
Toyota Highlander and yes, I have slept on the roof. I also leave it unlocked, so if you see it in the parking lot, take what you need. A highlight of my
career was definitely skiing with pro skier Sean Woods on the Proctor trails.
That guy is the real deal folks; hit him up on Instagram: @swoods2.
In the
summer, I interned for a realtor, and I gained some great job experience. I fit in
my training around that and felt pretty strong. Since I have been at SLU, I
already have gained some great memories. I hope we head into the carnival
season strong and get some good results. These kids seem to know how it’s done.
Here We Go Saints!
